#6283: [with patches, needs review] Make it so NUM_THREADS is set intelligently
instead of idiotically in makefile so doing "make ptest" or "make
ptestlong" doesn't kill some computers

Comment(by ddrake):

 Hrm, I just checked on T2, and multiprocessing.cpu_count() returns 128 on
 that machine, which perhaps is not ideal. The whole issue of
 cpus/cores/threads is really complicated -- see our own drkirkby
 [http://unix.derkeiler.com/Newsgroups/comp.unix.solaris/2009-06/msg00454.html
 on comp.os.solaris]. I think we can ignore this issue for the moment,
 since Sage doesn't even really build on T2.
